The Hungarian State Opera offers subscriptions series (3-7 performances) for its 2015/2016 season. Fans of opera, ballet and classical concerts can all find subscriptions to their liking. Premieres include Otello, Werther, Die Walküre, Il trovatore, The Tempest, all-time ballet favourite The Sleeping Beauty as well as two musicals: West Sider Story and Billy Elliot.

The Hungarian State Opera as a national institution regards it as its duty to support the opera playing of other Hungarian towns. This realization led to the birth of the Primavera series in 2013 which allows guest companies to present their productions at the Erkel Theatre over a week.

I stabbed her twice. She fell at the second thrust without a cry. I can still fancy I see her splendid black eyes regarding me steadily; then they became troubled and closed.”
